Overview

Catch 'em all, even when you're hardly trying. The Pokémon GO Plus accessory pairs with the Pokémon GO app on your Bluetooth-enabled smartphone and alerts you of nearby Pokémon as you go about your daily errands. With the press of a button you can attempt to catch new Pokémon, and collect Poké Balls, Berries, Eggs, and other items at PokéStops.

More Information

Compatible with any Bluetooth-enabled smartphone that has the Pokémon GO application installed

so/so

I was hoping for alot more with this purchase hoping niantic gets some more input on updating and improving this device. I only use it to get poke stops because i find the catch rate at best 40%

Worth every penny!

I just recently got my hands on one of these! I drove 32km's to a store in another city as I was sick of waiting for local stores to get any in stock.
I love that I can play without always having the phone in my hand. It does not catch larger Pokémon very well, but they are ones I would not have caught otherwise anyhow, so no big deal. I am glad I was finally able to experience this addition gameplay. I don't find the unit cheap as some other reviewers have said. A good solid little unit!

Purchased for Christmas gift

I purchased this item online from Best Buy excellent transaction Best Buy was on the ball very quick and user friendly purchasing on line the item itself was purchased as a Christmas gift but I have let my daughter borrow one from her friend it is a safer way to do Pokemon go without worrying about walking around and falling off the sidewalk or walking into stuff because you are constantly looking at the screen. I would highly recommend this item

Cool concept, poor delivery.

I was so pumped about this when it was announced then my hype slowly diminished as the time went by because of launch delays. I still play Pokemon go when im out but this seems to not be with me most of the time.
It has its uses for people in class or at work and want to try and catch what ever for star dust. But since we cant use a berry or a better ball there is a 55% chance (from my testing) that it will get away even its a 20 CP pidgey.
If the devs do some more work with this and upgrade your chance at catching pokemon or being about to see the rarity the Pokemon (maybe glow a different colour) i will be more than happy to use this more often but until then it will collect some dust on my dest.

Great

Works great for catching Pokemon when you can't be staring at your phone. It also collects items from pokestops and tracks your steps very well. I love it.

At current version it not worth it

The device is good that you do not have to constantly look at your phone to collect from the PokeStop or catching Pokemons, however with it's current version it is not all that useful. I bought this device mostly for the collection of PokeStops however its current set up, catching wild Pokemons (either New or dex'ed wild Pokemon, where the formal glows yellow and the latter glows green) takes priority over PokeStops (glows blue). What that means is in order to collect from a PokeStop through your Go Plus, you must capture (or attempt to capture) all wild Pokemons within your range before get the prompt to collect from the PokeStop. So I found myself pulling out my phone and do the job I thought the device would assist me with. If in the later version they add options for users to set up their own priorities which actions to curry out first (i.e. New wild Pokemon not in your list then PokeStop then caught wild Pokemons), since the device only has one button, then the device will be worth every penny. Before that the device will cause you to waste Pokeballs as it's current automatic capture procedure only uses the basic Pokeballs which are essentially useless as higher CP Pokemons require berries or better Pokeball to have a higher chance of capture.

Breaks easy - Very cheap

Adds cool functionality, but very expensive and cheaply made. Not really worth it.
